There\u2019s first-round left guard Grey Zabel, who is the franchise\u2019s highest-drafted interior offensive lineman since 2001.<\/p>\n
There are two ultra-athletic second-round picks in versatile safety Nick Emmanwori and field-stretching tight end Elijah Arroyo.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s fifth-round wide receiver Tory Horton, who\u2019s having a breakout training camp.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s 6-foot-3, 274-pound fullback Robbie Ouzts, who seems destined to become a fan favorite.<\/p>\n
And of course, there\u2019s third-round quarterback Jalen Milroe \u2013 whose electric athleticism and running ability make him one of the most compelling players in the entire 2025 draft class.<\/p>\n
But in addition to their draft class, the Seahawks also have some interesting undrafted rookies to keep an eye on this preseason. Here\u2019s a look at five such players:<\/p>\n
Jared Ivey | EDGE | 6-6, 274 | Ole Miss<\/p>\n
Ivey has a legitimate chance to make the initial 53-man roster, especially with the possibility that Uchenna Nwosu opens the season on the physically unable to perform list. A projected fifth-round pick by NFL.com,<\/a> the 6-foot-6, 274-pound Ivey is coming off back-to-back highly productive seasons at Ole Miss.<\/p>\n In 2024, he posted the seventh-best Pro Football Focus<\/a> grade among FBS edge rushers and filled up the stat sheet with 7.0 sacks, 11 tackles for losses, two forced fumbles and three pass breakups. And in 2023, he recorded 5.5 sacks and 12 tackles for loss and was named the Peach Bowl\u2019s Defensive MVP.<\/p>\n FIRE ME UP @jared_ivey1595<\/a> \ud83d\ude24 pic.twitter.com\/Q2LYSrM0md<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Ole Miss Football (@OleMissFB) October 26, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n Isas Waxter | CB | 6-1, 205 | Villanova<\/p>\n The Seahawks\u2019 top four cornerbacks seem pretty set, but Waxter might have an opportunity to push the likes of Shemar Jean-Charles, Damarion Williams and Nehemiah Pritchett for the fifth corner spot. The 6-foot-1, 205-pound Waxter brings a physical presence as the second-biggest corner on Seattle\u2019s 90-man roster in both height and weight \u2013 behind only the 6-4, 210-pound Riq Woolen.<\/p>\n Waxter had three interceptions, 11 pass breakups and four tackles for loss with FCS-level Villanova in 2023 and was an AP FCS All-American honorable mention in 2024, when he had three forced fumbles.<\/p>\n Cold as ice \ud83e\udd76@isaswaxter2<\/a> getting his hand up for the PBU! \ud83d\udeab#ShrineBowlWHOSNEXT<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/9K4XzRiQzu<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 East-West Shrine Bowl (@ShrineBowl) April 1, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n Tyrone Broden | WR | 6-5, 194 | Arkansas<\/p>\n The battle for the final one or two wide receiver spots already figures to be extremely crowded<\/a>, so Broden likely has a very steep path to making the 53-man roster. But nevertheless, the 6-foot-5 Broden\u2019s rare combination of height and speed could make him an entertaining player to watch this preseason. He reportedly ran a blazing 4.37 40-yard dash time<\/a> at his pro day, which would have tied for the sixth-fastest time among wide receivers at the NFL combine.<\/p>\n Broden totaled 1,102 receiving yards and 12 touchdown catches over two seasons at Bowling Green, followed by 315 receiving yards and four TDs over two seasons at Arkansas.<\/p>\n BRODEN to the HOUSE\ud83c\udfe1<\/p>\n Matt McDonald finds Tyrone Broden for 64 yards and a score!

AJ Barner and Elijah Arroyo are primed to be the two feature tight ends, with veteran Eric Saubert serving as a run-blocking specialist and Russell adding depth as a hybrid tight end\/fullback. But if one of those players were to get injured, Kallerup may be next in line.<\/p>\n Kallerup has a powerful frame and was an elite blocker in college at Minnesota, where he posted the second-best PFF run blocking grade among FBS tight ends last season.<\/p>\n .@nickkallerup<\/a> \u270d\ufe0f @Seahawks<\/a> #pROWGophers<\/a> | #RTB<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/AxMtlX9A0r<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Minnesota Football (@GopherFootball) April 27, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n Connor O\u2019Toole | EDGE | 6-3, 248 | Utah<\/p>\n O\u2019Toole spent his freshman year at Utah as a wide receiver before switching to edge rusher for his final three college seasons. He dealt with multiple injuries, but still managed to record 7.0 sacks, 11 tackles for loss, two forced fumbles, three pass breakups and two blocked field goals in 16 games over the past two seasons. He also showed decent speed at the Big 12 Pro Day, reportedly running a 4.66-second 40-yard dash<\/a>.<\/p>\n It\u2019s notable that O\u2019Toole\u2019s contract reportedly included $264,000 guaranteed<\/a>. That was the highest value among this year\u2019s Seahawks undrafted rookie class and tied for the 15th-highest among all NFL undrafted rookies, according to Spotrac.<\/p>\n Utes come up with the ball after a huge strip sack by Connor O\u2019Toole! \ud83d\udcaa pic.twitter.com\/DBUwOeu6Z0<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Pac-12 Network (@Pac12Network) November 25, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n More on the Seattle Seahawks<\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0What Bump is hoping to see for Seattle Seahawks rookie vs Raiders<\/a>
